History

The joint stock company Zalyv Shipyard was founded in 1938. It is situated on the shore of the Kerch Strait, between two seas, the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. From 1945 to 1980, the yard built about 600 ships, including sea trawlers, small torpedo boats, fishing boats and barges. Since the 1960s, it has built tankers.

The shipyard was formerly affiliated with the KrAZ Holding Company (Kremenchuk). As of April 2017, the company is owned by OOO Vesta (60%) and OOO Enkor (40%).[1] . The facilities were targeted by a missile attack on November 4, 2023, with one ship in dock being allegedly damaged.
